WANT TO GET ACCEPTED TO A BETTER COLLEGE?
WHAT’S YOUR “STANDOUT FACTOR?”
There are more than 26,000 high schools in the United States. That means there are 26,000 football captains; 26,000 prom queens; 26,000 valedictorians; and 26,000 yearbook editors. If you want to stand out to a college, you’ve got to really stand out.
How to Increase Your Standout Factor
There is a very powerful way to differentiate you from other students applying to college: Ensure you have a Standout Factor. The most interesting Standout Factors are activities that are typically dominated by adults, or noteworthy tasks that no other high school student does. Either way, a Standout Factor will help you differentiate yourself from other applicants.
It’s simple. Do something you wouldn’t normally consider doing. Standout Factors are not run-of-the-mill activities. Participating on your school’s yearbook staff, for example, is not a Standout Factor. In fact, every high school yearbook in the world is put together by students. It is a good learning experience, but it won’t necessarily help you stand out.
How to Tell if it’s a Standout Factor
Managing the yearbook staff will help you stand out because it shows leadership. But taking it further will give you a true Standout Factor. Running a yearbook business will easily help you stand out from the crowd. Few high school students, if any, own yearbook production companies!
If other high school students do it, it’s not a Standout Factor. Also, the more positive impact your activity has on others, the better.
Examples of Standout Factors
• Restore antique instruments
• Hike the Appalachian Trail
• Invent something
• Start a real business with customers
• Breed a special strain of flower and and employees name it after your grandmother
• Make a movie and convince real
• Help run a political campaign
• Start a community charity theaters to show it or volunteer organization
Go for big impact with your Standout Factor. MAKE AN IMPACT IN YOUR COMMUNITY!
